    Don't forget the pizza place next to the  liquor store, it's pretty good!

     

    Also, don't know if this has been talked about in the forum, but the big warehouse that got updated down the road (2339 Canal St.) is supposed to have a coworking space (Common Desk) and a cidery/arcade (Bishop) both from Dallas based companies in the near future.

    Your post made me seek out what Pizza place you could be talking about. Southside, right? I got it on Thursday and it was really good!

    Why would they move? They have been there for more than 100 years, IIRC. That grass field is a welcome respite from a sea of concrete. Sometimes it's nice for kids to have a safe, grassy place to run around.

     

    This...as much as we complain about historical buildings being removed/replaced, why on earth would the church move?

    I imagine the powers that be behind Ion may have thoughts about how they may be able to utilize the parking lot, and I'm sure the church has their thoughts about it as well.

    It's truly strange how few grocery stores/coffee shops/local corner stores/etc there are in that area. You have a ton of people living by that park, stupid amounts of foot traffic.

     

    I can guess why that is but its not a pretty thought. Regardless of its location, its targeting 60% of AMI and lower, which is super commendable. Tbh, I'm surprised the business interests behind the Mosaic and other higher end apartments are OK with such a development. I didn't see where it says senior housing. I wish more of these would go up in that neighborhood, emancipation area, and the heights. 

    The HEB across 288 opens in less than 2 months!
